I would never recommend anyone to use Emily as their attorney. I hired her many many years ago to represent me for my child custody/ support case and she did nothing to help me. I did all the leg work by providing her all my documents, going to the court to retrieve old documents from previous cases with the father of my children. The day of court she showed up with no paperwork, good thing I was prepared and had a copy of the whole case with me that she used. After months of not hearing from her with an update she informed me the judge threw out my case due to the other parent having outstanding violations and that I could pay the tickets myself to live forward which turned out to be a lie years later. I went to the court to try to proceed with the case on my own and the staff thought I was crazy and advised me to fire my attorney because they hard record she showed up to court on an unknown date and represented me and the judge did actually grant me full custody and child support which I did not know about for years. When I asked for the final documents they informed me the child support will not be valid since the attorney filed the order after hearing incorrectly and left off the child support but it was mentioned in the minute order. Per the court staff I would have to refill all the paperwork and serve the other parent again and go before a judge. It’s impossible for me to serve the other parent as he is in jail far away and financially I do not have the funds nor time to do this as this has been a case going since about 2013. Do not waste your time or money because you will be left doing the attorney work on your own.

I cannot express this enough, But Emily is a professional, understanding, and aggressive lawyer who will speak and fight for your Justice. First thing’s first, I am very proud of my attorney, she really understands and takes into consideration the needs of her clients very seriously and acts accordingly. The Domestic Violence Restraining Order was DENIED AND CASE DISMISSED. Do not miss out on Emily, trust in her and her skills and follow her lead. Her cross examination skills are phenomenal. During my trial Emily defended me and I was able to see her be 10 steps ahead of petitioner and her attorney. She won my case and most importantly SHE REUNITED ME WITH MY DAUGHTER after 4 months of not being able to see her. I will forever be grateful to Emily, she will always be someone in my life that I will never forget. The way she spoke for me and represented me in that court room is something I will never forget. She took the stress away from me and assured me that their is Justice for MEN. I highly recommend Emily for representation!!

When our granddaughter was 3 years old her mother decided we could no longer see her. Our son was not married to the mother. Emily walked us through a 3 year-long court battle and a 6-day trial, with grace, support, loving kindness and a deeply sincere wish to prevail--which we did, completely! The process was long and arduous. One of Emily's many talents is writing and studying case law, these two factors won our case outright. My husband, our son, and I, will be indebted to Emily for the rest of our lives--because our son has an extraordinary relationship with his daughter and we share the joy of her company frequently, something we dreamed about for over 3 years when she was removed from our lives. Our case was complex, there were numerous court dates, culminating in a very long trial, which Emily litigated professionally, honestly and expertly. She's one in a million attorneys.

Communication and honesty was the foundation from the start. Emily walked me through the process regarding guardianship and delays that could occur. The entire process took a year, but since I knew what to expect, I planned and stayed positive...the outcome resulted in a win and sense of relief. Emily is always available for questions or to just talk. Honest open communication and does not hold back even when news is not favorable. You feel her confidence and see the path she is taking on your behalf. I read reviews when I was looking for lawyer and that is what guided me to Emily. If you are reading my review, I hope it helps you as previous reviews helped me.

I am a 26 year old new mother born and raised in Knoxville Tennessee, i had met my baby's father in California in a rehab. i became pregnant, i returned home and had my baby, before my baby turned 6 months old. i came to California, on a "vacation". i stayed with my baby's fathers, mother. i was naive and trusted them. little did i know they had planned to take my baby from me and attempt to keep me in California. They alienated me so i could not communicate with my family, they held me hostage in their home, the father and his mother, physically took my child out of my arms. they lied in California court and said awful things about me that were untrue in attempt to prove me unfit. They have money, and hired a lawyer to blindside me, as the grandmother attempted to get guardianship of my child, they kept my child from me for a month, and tied me up in California court. i came to Emily lost , confused and out of hope, a 26 year old new mom, she told me in the beginning she would get my daughter back and get me home; she did exactly what she said she would do. we had 9 court appearances in a month and a evidentiary hearing on jurisdiction. it became a hearing on my character, Emily defended me, and proved California court had no jurisdiction. She was amazing. She is a real person, and she became a very close friend. I had a ridiculously hard case and she fought it until the end. she showed up to court every time we had to and brought her best . i highly recommend her. if you have difficult case, and have lost hope and see no end in sight, she will bring the light. her and her associates became my friends. they are an amazing team and will work hard to do what is right. Her and her associates taught me a lot about myself, and things i needed to learn to grow up and be the mother i know i could be. They are an amazing group of real people. I am lucky to have stumbled upon her. Without her, i would not have my daughter. I have happily returned home to Tennessee with my daughter where we belong, and am enrolling in school and starting the life i want for my child. without Emily and her team i would be lost in California without my daughter i can never thank them enough.

I hired Emily as a father who had lost his son due to unfortunate circumstances. Emily fought hard and ultimately won primary custody of my son for me. She understood the practice and knew the steps to take in order to win this kind of case. I would recommend her to anyone who has a difficult case and wants cold hard facts. She doesn't sugar coat things and doesn't make false promises. Everything that she promised, she delivered, so thank you.

Emily Marx and her amazing team were empathetic and willing to work my particularly difficult and complex case. Emily worked tirelessly and improvised multiple times to achieve the intended goal. We could not have been more satisfied with the outcome and have the utmost respect and appreciation for every employee in this office. I would highly encourage anyone with family law needs to reach out and meet this increadible professional. I felt lost and truly in need of help with an emotional charged situation and Emily Marx’s support and direction made me confident she was the right attorney for me and my family. In hindsight selecting her was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

I was contacted by Emily C Marx , on the way to court. I was consulted over the phone and drove straight to her office within the hour. I can definitely say everything Emily proposed , she did deliver. I wanted to file an Emergency Ex Parte notice and she made it happen within the very week. I haven't been with my 3 month old baby for an entire week. There was a complete mix up on our scheduled day of the notice to be served successfully. From clerk errors to wrong courthouses. With that being said Emily became very passionate about my case and did everything she could to fix errors she did not make. I am very pleased with the outcome of this case and her drive to get to the bottom of tough situations handed to her. I appreciate the hard work and her genuine paralegal team!

Emily won a very complicated case for me after it became necessary to fire my first attorney. I am very particular but Emily exceeded every expectation that I had. Her paralegal team was excellent too! I can't thank her enough for all of her help.
